What if Lost had been a 1980s video game in the style of Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion? For one thing, most of its perplexing mysteries would have been solvable with the right combination of searching and puzzle-solving. Robert Penney imagines that delightful version of Lost as a pixellated point-and-click game, circa 1987.

Head over to Penney Design for the full series of Lost game images, with various player characters and "levels." Now if only we could pair up the LucasArts team from the 1980s with the Lost license, we'd be on to something.
